Steel Hawg - 2008 coaster for Indiana Beach

[GavG]

This is one style of ride that I hope catches on... It really does look intense for what they class as a family coaster.

I would love to see what a full on adrenaline pumper would be like.

erm, WOW! This coaster is possibly the strangest looking ride ever. I really want to see what the cars look like!!! They better be comfy, 'cause with a layout like that, this ride could be potentially brutal!

My trip to IB will be planned once they post the opening date... I'll be sure to let you guys know how it is!

The ride actually looks quite a bit more awesome than I first imagined; I think it'll be a great addition to their lineup.

that ride looks so amazingly painful. I like that downward barrel roll though. It looks fun, but extremely painful.

Storm Runner's barrel roll is a wee bit slanted and so is Vertical Velocity's in Cali...

It looks.....Painful.... 'nuff said.

hmmmm, this so reminds me of the new type of k'nex rollercoaster



you cannot tell me that they dont look really very simaler with the support style and the track style.

how cool is it that they based a real coaster on a knex toy set

WICKED

that is pretty cool.

Well, I live in Cali and have been on V2 many many many many many many many many many many many many times. Very fun every single time you go on it. But still, that downward barrel roll looks fun because it looks like it will be taken very fast.

It looks like a marble track.

Woah, what is this thing? That looks crazy, maybe I'll get to ride it this season.

woah... that looks amazing!!! [:O] [;)]

It doesn't look very stable. Especially the track looks it will collapse.

Wonder what the trains will be like?

It reminds me of Intamin ZacSpin and BallCoaster as they both are compact "family" coasters.

This looks awesome! I can't wait to get out and ride it this year as soon as it opens. I was personally concerned that it would be trimmed up everywhere along the course of the ride, like Screamin' Squirrel (http://www.rcdb.com/ig3465.htm?picture=1), but besides the holding brake thing on the first drop and the MCBR's, it looks like they will let the ride run to its full potential.

dude WTF!?!??!?! I like it, but it just looks like someone was smokeing too much crack when they designed that thing

Yea...cause Id really want to ride a Screamin Squirrel that isnt trimmed.

Sorry, I value my life and the quality of it. I dont need unnecessary brain damage from pulling a couple negative Gs without a G suit.

it looks like a kennects coaster. and anyone know what tipe it is?

why is it that on the turn it is banked the oppisite of what it shuold be. Ill ride the dragster or anything but thiss i dont know about.

Because they wanted it to bank the opposite way.

Still looking for that "Outside 360 Roll".

Isn't that the downhill barrel roll?

Maybe... I thought the train would literally be on the outside of the roll, and it doesn't really look that way.

The cars look quite comfortable, but the restraints look almost the same as a huss sky swatter



But it still doesn't look comfortable!

.. Wow, that looks like something out of a K'nex Roller Coaster Expansion Set! That's not necessarily a bad thing.. I just hope it won't be painful..

Thats because swat is S&S, not Huss. They use the same restraints on everything.

Those restraints, are awesome. You have a amazing free feeling but you're still safe. Cool cars!
